Product Description
The Arkel BC-D3XAW is the aesthetic and functional choice for modern elevator installations requiring high information density at the landing. While standard displays are limited to two digits, the 3×30 mm configuration of this unit allows it to serve buildings with over 100 floors or complex subterranean levels (e.g., “B15”), providing clear navigation for passengers.
Visual Ergonomics and Technology: The shift to White LED technology offers higher contrast and legibility compared to standard red matrix displays. The unit connects directly to the ARCODE system via CANbus, which not only powers the unit but also allows for the synchronization of scrolling text messages (e.g., “Maintenance Mode”) and direction arrows, keeping passengers fully informed of the lift’s status.
Engineering for Efficiency: Designed for B2B efficiency, the BC-D3XAW reduces installation time by combining the call buttons, display, and audio buzzer into a single CANbus-addressable node. It eliminates the need for bundle wiring, requiring only a simple serial connection to the shaft cable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between BC-D3XAW and BC-D3XAR?
The difference is the LED color. The BC-D3XAW uses White (W) LEDs for a modern, high-end look, while the BC-D3XAR uses standard Red (R) LEDs. Both have the same 3x30mm resolution and ARCODE compatibility,.
Q2: Is this unit compatible with the ARL-500 controller?
The BC series (e.g., BC-D3XAW) is listed in the catalog under ARCODE peripherals,. The equivalent model specifically listed for ARL-500 systems is the KK3X3057AW,. While hardware is similar, it is recommended to order the specific model code that matches your control system to ensure firmware compatibility.
Q3: Can this display show letters as well as numbers?
Yes. The dot-matrix technology allows for the display of alphanumeric characters (A-Z) and special symbols. This is essential for floors named “L” (Lobby), “P” (Parking), or “R” (Restaurant), as well as scrolling status text.
Q4: How is the volume of the arrival gong adjusted?
The unit features an on-board volume trimpot (potentiometer) on the PCB. Technicians can manually adjust this during commissioning to set the appropriate sound level for the landing environment.
